Very quiet, best for older folks or young families. I was bummed that there was very little entertainment and restaurant options. This place caters to Time Share owners and all inclusive guests are second class citizens.

Overall had a good experience with this property but a few things I thought would improve it: 1. I thought things closed pretty early and I thought it would be nice if they were open a bit longer.. If you are looking for an all-inclusive where you can party to the late night hours this is not the place to stay. Its definitely family oriented which makes it a great place to bring family. 2. I would have liked to see more food options personally. They do have like 5 restaurants but most of them are not available for breakfast and lunch as they open in the afternoon. So besides ordering room service, the only option for breakfast/lunch is one restaurant that is a buffet. The buffets have lots of choices, but often the food doesn't feel as fresh to me. 3. The drinks included in the all-inclusive are more bottom shelf alcohol and they are generally pretty weak. Getting top shelf is an additional charge. But that is probably pretty typical. 4. Note, there is a government charge added to my account each day. its like 76pesos which isn't that big of a deal, but it is something that I didn't know ahead of time. Overall the trip was very enjoyable and if I brought kids I'd definitely consider going back here. If I was just going with adults I'd probably consider going to a different hotel. Staff experiences were all very good, the site was clean and it felt safe.

Staff were excellent and environment was serene, however, all inclusive was not inclusive, Surcharges applied to quite a number of items. Be ready to drop your room key for every services - not cool with that. Great beach and pools, the kids love it.

We love staying at the Royal Sands! The beach is incredible and the staff is amazing!! Resort is HUGE. The onsite store is so convenient. The food at all restaurants is delicious. The rooms are basic and simple but everything you need to get the relaxation necessary. Love that they have a gym and spa on the resort as well. Will definitely continue to return to the Royal Sands every year.

Could be so much better for the price we paid
Pros: size of rooms. Ease of access to beach and pools. good beds. the water slides are good for small kids. Cons: Food is medium at best and sometimes just bad, and it doesn't matter if you are using the special resturantsor not. no real activities for kids. The extra activity we were reccomend to buy (dolphins in Isla Mujeres) was an 8 hour "trip" for 50 minutes of activity, and the rest of the time on the island felt like we were only there to be used as a walking credit card. though the activity was not by the hotel, it was recommended and coordinated by the staff and I would expect more honesty about it.
